dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

I've always said that bands with an image are a little bit silly, stupid, pretentious, etc. I like to see a band who takes the stage wearing the same clothes they wear all day every day. There are always exceptions to the rule, especially in my book. This band had an image, and it really came across in everything they did, album design, live shows, lyrics and songwriting, the whole package. I think this was a band that believed in their image, not because they kept it up for so long they became consumed by it, but they truly believed in it. As far as I'm concerned these guys were really a bunch of Aleister Crowley reading, Necronomicon quoting, spaghetti western cowboys; who happened to make some great music in between showdowns at high noon, and dusty barroom scuffles.
